then became the tipping point of the entire national election one guy who was reporting on the ground in ohio from day one was attorney bob for traces of the columbus free press bob the trick is cliff are back became the legal team suing for a recount in ohio taking on ohio's secretary of state jake kenneth blackwell who also happened to be co-chair for the bush cheney campaign in ohio let me just remind you of a few of the facts. ken blackwell called it a model lection. but we're trying to figure out what is was he talking there was a lien these first clue jasim said there was not a single act of your regularity and investigative reporter that's true there were tens of thousands of acts of irregularities in a single precinct in ohio a total of six hundred thirty eight ballots were cast on election day bush received

over four thousand of them. twenty four point nine three percent of all the voters in cleveland were purged a city that went eighty three percent for kerry. seven thousand voters lost their right to vote in the inner city of toledo. because the bolt optical scan machines froze up warren county as the last county in ohio to come in with their vote totals and they locked down the place where they're counting the votes and they want to allow any witnesses in one allow any media and they say because of the homeland security threat and yet the next day we checked with homeland security and they say we never spoke to anyone in ohio john kerry didn't fight was. hiding out. any one of his attorneys told me he wants to remain viable in two thousand and eight.

congressman conyers ohio. to make his report on what had gone wrong in the old four presidential election he's one of the most respected members he's the democratic leader of the judiciary committee and they do great job what happened in ohio since the corruption a very great skill. in mr blackwell secretary of state of ohio does anybody here think that john kerry should become the president. but i have any proof. that anything. my blog because the. mainstream media was not doing their job i was seeing things that needed to be reported and talked about i talked about them and people started to take notice including the mainstream media washington post and so forth it would.

reporting but wouldn't do it themselves and still are not doing it. for election because at this point the votes. not even once the same kind of crap. effort to stop the black vote that was exposed in florida i know more about took place in georgia and probably all across the south i'm in tennessee to attend a national conference on election fraud. when curtis is the. missile blower from florida yes he's going to show how you can be back in the us. if you have no boat you have no civil rights in two thousand i was working for yang

enterprises which was a company in obio florida and their their chief lobbyist their corporate attorney and speaker of the house of florida was tom feeney and he was there to feed us contractors so he came in one day my one of my first introductions to him and he wanted us to build a boat flipping software one of the vote fraud system to be built he wanted a program that could flip the votes without anyone seeing it he wanted it to be able to be run on a touch screen machine in other words hidden buttons on the screen or something like that no keyboard no no guy in a black mask sitting across the street in a van poking things then just walk up and do something and he wanted the source code to be written in such a way that the manipulation was hidden even if you saw the source code is that possible it's not possible if it's there and someone takes the time to look you can

hide it so i told him right up front that as long as you can see the source code you can't hide it cannot hide it can't be done and what he said while mrs yang cut me off and said who's mrs mrs yang is the head of the company and she cut me off and said well before some show. did you understand he was asking you to do something that was illegal i was a republican i thought tom feeney thought the democrats had something planned ok and he was trying to prevent it so i built it delivered it the next day to her i have a little document all written up on you know how in order to make sure that you know fraud was found what elements you would need right and she cuts me off and says you don't understand in order to get the contract we need to hide the code this is for flipping vote in south florida this is the same timeframe who as speaker of the house in two thousand claimed no matter what the supreme court said he was going to give the electors to george w. bush yes that's the guy the same tom feeney as i understand it who was jeb bush's

running mates for governor back in ninety four when jobs lost by the way yes so feeney did him no good they're no good at that time that they were right and so he was basically feeding of contracts and saying you know can we do this can we do that you know ok i was kind of the technology supervisor if we could do it then i would tell him and we could run whatever you know a little test pattern they wanted for jeb was already governor at that point yes two thousand there was already governor when i was contacted by i said well would you be willing to put this into an affidavit a sworn affidavit since a lot of the stuff off the bat is is still difficult to prove especially that nugget of that meeting with tom feeney and the vote rigging software is still largely a he said he said story under center six two thousand and four clint curtis filed an affidavit with congress alleging that one of their members tom feeney of florida

had asked him to create vote rigging software and he asked you to design a to design a code to rig an election yes while he was speaker of the florida house yes. yang's attorney quickly released a statement claiming that mr curtis's allegations are categorically false and that clint curtis is a described old former employee i have heard clint you were a disgruntled employee welding and that's why you've been making these claims that was their original excuse until i produced and i think it's gone you're blogging the new card which they gave me with said you know come back any time the door will always be open in this with gains of the gold the actual owner mrs yang as you wrote that. i wonder if this is yang is available that bradford. any idea when she might be available and work on a story or. is there

a spokesperson for the company that might be able to questions. hello. this meeting with tom feeney where he asked you to create which is what is essentially vote rigging software looked round of voting machines tom feeney is in the room your in the room mrs yang the c.e.o. is in the room anybody else in the room night cohen who is my cone like cohen was the executive secretary for mrs he space the note taker my cohen the executive secretary for mrs yang whom curtis claimed was at the vote rigging meeting told a reporter from wired that the meeting never took place if they really tried to put out a program to do vote fraud the minute they checked the source code they'd see it sounds like you presumed that these counties the states and so forth would examine the source code before was actually used in an election correct well yeah but they do

not correct that's what i heard what did you think when you heard that that. i should tell people what's going on what he wanted was a program that would flip about and this is what i produced basically it looks like that. you've compiled a essentially a prototype program just show how somebody could in fact if they want to use the touch screen so it looks about correct this is all garbage program i wrote for queenie you don't see the actual vote count so you walk up who want to carry is winning a little bit ok you come in and you vote for bush to vote for bush you know bush always adds by one vote for kerry vote for kerry so the people that are going to be validating this machine can stand there all day long and vote for somebody and it will be right every time pretty simple ok but the guy can walk up here and if he

hits the right buttons he can flip the vote that he did. so the whole of voto has changed. you can have twenty people standing behind his back while he's poking his screen and you never sought. out fifty one forty nine orgon. because it's under the thumb of the recall. close enough you don't have a recall when i actually wrote it it wasn't bush kerry it was cat and dog i think. i think the voting should still be done on paper because it's way too easy to manipulate computers jesse jackson and i were on a speaker from mr kerry and we told him mr kerry didn't really respond to what we said about ohio but he did point out that the off the skin. wherever they used to be in new mexico he lost to a godless of the democratic and went public and registration said it sure seems like they lost everywhere they use those machines why didn't you leave the building

with a copy of the source code to prove it had gone because it's so secure it's like you don't do that we have government contracts and nothing is supposed to leave the building it is more difficult to get into the yang offices than it is to get into a government office. yes i was an employee of the department of transportation florida department the florida department of transportation the department entered into a contract with yang i believe in january of ninety nine i had. approximately ninety four ninety five did she ever tell you how she came to hire tom feeney. it to me that now he that he was in politics that they had hired mr feeney as search on all counts does that strike you as odd that a company doing business with the state would hire the incoming speaker of the house it struck me as odd that an individual like this in addition to being general

counsel for a vendor when also be the registered paid lobbyist for a vendor and mr feeney was both for yang enterprises nasa contractor yes this is a secure conduit could talk. sort of top secret clearance to have those whom they must have some clearance goes in to do. if you need help them. i don't know but he has connections to nasa his wife works there something was slowly going wrong the invoice is from yang began to escalate every time i would reject an invoice and say no this is not what we agreed to here was your authorization that's all you can bill. we'll have to discuss this with our general counsel mr tom feeney he's the speaker of the house. so they began using his name trying to intimidate me did you have enough of a concern about it to go to anybody and say hey just this doesn't seem right since

he was speaker of the house and a member of the house called the house ethics committee and said you know i was having a problem and there may well be political influence and how did they handle these things and they tell me that mr feeney was the person who would review it and either accept it for if you are throw it out as being not worthwhile wait a minute and i said i'm complaining about mr feeney and they said we don't have any way to bypass them the way our committee is set up is mr feeney is the one who will evaluate your complaint. for one of our elected politicians to use the power of his office. for self. that's not supposed to happen prior to getting introduced afine right they just seemed odd things were odd. yang enterprises was ringing gigabytes of data

bases from nasa and then they were handing it over to henry ne who was henry need hindery me was a little skinny chinese guy that worked there and. he was illegal he was an illegal alien to this day mrs yang i understand says that henry ne never worked at yang enterprises inc one of the reasons you can prove that he was working on a project was the fact that they actually build for him they're sending time sheets to you saying here's who were correct and how many hours they worked and so for correct one of them was clint curtis one of them was quite current one of them was henry me one of them was handling me. if you got it every environmental group every group you have just say we're not going to do anything else we're going to make the boat system and we're going to

fix it. and you can fix it in two months but you've got to be in it everything else really was months and not save the whales and not do anything else thinks that problem because if you don't fix that problem nothing else you want to do will matter. thank you i am pleased to follow that liar clint curtis. in case anybody missed it this morning clint curtis passed a lie detector test and it ran in this morning st petersburg times did you have any concerns because taking a polygraph test you know i've been trying to quite a while but the opportunity came along for someone who is supposedly you know top line right now in career with department law enforcement so it's a good time to do it what they ask. you they basically were trying to validate the

affidavit that i give to congress this lie detector test that clint curtis took was administered by tim robinson who used to be the chief polygraph examiner for the florida department of law enforcement clint curtis was found to be truthful in all of his responses congressman tom feeney has yet to take his polygraph exam. hari hursti was invited by election supervisor ion san show to test the d. bold accurate optical scan voting machine in leon county florida curtis said that the program was never used as far as you know it was a proof of concept is there anything about his concept that from the touch screen systems. there it's impossible for me to say if actually you can do it we know all the machines definitely you can do with the bold both platforms and the presumption here being that nobody gets to look at the source code well indeed i would say i would build it so that you can find from

source or even if someone did loose it and that's i mean i wouldn't go with the dot the area can't be built i don't know if he's a good enough programmer to do it could it be done that you can actually hide it in the source source code well basic cannot be done yeah i found black box voting facilitated a number of hacking demonstrations congresswoman cynthia mckinney was able to witness the vulnerability of a de bold central tabulator first hand with three clicks of a mouse and some instructions from those who know how to do this i was able to hack into the microsoft program that tabulates them both change the election bow and then exit from the program now as i i did it and so then that means that i can and know that it can be done. to. collect called me and tell me that he has resigned from yang why were you

resigning in the first place. because there are crooked. and if there ethically challenged i don't want to be there. i gave him a listing of firms that we did business with and tell him if he were made available through an existing contract i would then be able to contract with him so you went to the florida department of transportation after you left yang enterprises yes wrecked you know like an eight million dollar contract right was right and they found i was working there and they went ballistic they start calling all over the place and i need to call them as soon as possible because you might go and. yang is now calling you after you went to work after right they were in the room talking to the mumbling in the background you know and mike was basically the voice coming out of this why are they calling you they want to offer me big money to come back at first you know and then when it got to the point of well feeney will find you a different job and we'll give you this million dollars anyway it's like why they

offered you a million dollars for me a million dollars just leave. and why didn't you take that because that's not right what did he tell you the offer was for to. keep his mouth shut. so i start talking to mike corley mark cohen the executive of the night you know in trying to find out what's going on you know and basically he told me what was going on you know they had illegal aliens working there you know. henery was a spy they were ripping off you know the whole routine and it turned from you know bribes to you know we're going to come kill you kind of stuff. and we're going to kill you if the sniper was a sniper this is thompson the road he said was the v.p. at one time the v.p. write my call and says to you that ralph is going to come kill you well actually says ralph used to be a sniper and you know you'd never see it coming don't want ralph ralph and this is

being taped you got enough certainly go to the police somebody is just told oh then i go through the books i have to have some for evidence because otherwise what books do for that particular time well since i work in the same department where the billing had come in and i started looking through the contract and they had been over billing for me. for years and they're really like forty hours a week for forever were you working forty hours a week and all that in close we're going to nasa contracts and the exxon mobile contracts and but you're working forty hour weeks essentially and all of that time was being billed to yang even though you were not doing all your own work for they've been billed for a couple of days after i had left them and was working out after so i told maybe george alice and she said well we need to go to the attorney general's office you it was jealous yes she went up with me and told a story and i told my part of it and the inspector general was whom right let me

what complaints were made with raymond let me and proper and voicing on the part of the gang enterprises improper political influence because coming down from tom feeney i see. through my immediate supervisor now it's until the half of yang enterprises and the use by yang enterprises of unauthorized alien labor i tell them everything that went on and yet you don't buy the vote rigging software yes you sure yes in their report it looks like you complained about the things that had to do with specifically that's the things that he could touch on and all the other stuff he was supposed to pass on to like the nasa stuff he was passed in nasa and you know it was a go they vote rigging stuff he was supposed to pass it out i guess to where it goes they claim that you didn't tell them seems odd doesn't it they know about all the rest in the year two thousand they cut your. of this bill. and the

presidential election process there's no doubt in my mind that al gore was elected president. he will see the most votes nationwide and moderated he also received the most votes in far as long as we cannot express ourselves at the ballot box. with al gore getting so many more popular votes than bush in two thousand well in a normal country and that would be the election and we should arrange our elections really weird when. it's back to an eighteenth century. trick. voter fraud is not a problem in this country election fraud is a huge problem voter fraud. you know it's something that the bad guys like to put out there as if it's a problem in fact for example league of women voters did a study of the last two national elections in ohio and found that nine over nine

million votes cast there was exactly four cases of voter fraud that was discovered it's not the people it's the voting machine companies who are running these elections with secret software who are privatizing it it's the congressmen and the senators and the state officials who are allowing them to do so there's nothing quite so hot as a joy just some. but guess what oh my she's bright down to me. now i wonder if our last three years secretary of state kathy kotz who wants to be the next governor of georgia the first woman governor of georgia asked the question how did the machines perform in me. if she had just asked that simple question we would have had an alternative to the diebold machines but then by that time of course she had already allowed babbo to

place her photograph. to see all of the state of georgia on their promotional materials so she had become what he had to this particular system which i think kind of is a conflict of interest. or do you think. that. every month we give you the future we help you understand how we get there and what tomorrow brings the best in science and technology from across russia and around the world. join us for technology update on our.

fires continue to rage across russia killing dozens and uploading thousands of people leaving whole cities struggling to breathe through toxic small. remembers the hundreds killed in the war with georgia to tbilisi shelled the republic leaving its capital all but razed to the ground. also japan's months sixty five years since an atomic bomb was dropped on hiroshima for the first time since that deadly event washington sent an envoy to the moral service but still no apologies. with it back at the past week's top stories on the latest developments this is

auntie here in moscow good to have you with us a huge blanket of suffocating toxic smaug. to be poisoning millions as it clings to central russia highly polluted it is causing unease and throats to sting people are escaping from and affected areas for a chance to breathe some fresh air and it's not been easy getting away has disrupted flight today reports visibility on the roads has been close to zero. at the epicenter of the crisis the burning pink. in the moscow region it's very. hard to breathe in fact the ecological situation is still critical the small is very thick and visibility is really poor and as soon as i'm done with the report i'm going to put on this mask is the only way to feel at least a little bit comfortable since of this the small and pollution is also worsened by the heat which is now increasing as the day goes on authorities say that it's not

expected that this small will dissolve in the view nearest future they say that it may only start dissolving by sometime in the middle of next week and doctors say that breathing this is there for just a few hours is equal to smoking a few packs of cigarettes that's why they strongly advise people to stay inside their homes in the affected area shut all the windows and drink as much water as possible wear masks and take several showers a day this these conditions are of course even more difficult for people with cords and and long and of course this whole situation is caused by the hundreds of fires clearly across russia seventeen regions have been affected some of them including moscow region have announced a state of emergency and according to the latest official figures there are currently over five hundred and fifty reaching fires and several thousand firefighters and volunteers are currently.
